Count your drinks (1 drink equals 1 ounce of 100-proof liquor, one five ounce glass of table wine or one 12-ounce bottle of regular beer).
Use the chart below and under number of "drinks" and opposite "body weight" find the percent of blood alcohol listed.
Subtract from this number the percent of alcohol "burned up" during the time elapsed since your first drink.

This figure is .015% per hour. (Example: 180 lb. man - 8 drinks in 4 hours / .167% minus (.015x4) = .107 %

REMEMBER this is only an estimate.

Sexual Assault & Sex Crimes

Recently, Attorney Christopher T. Van Wagner won an outright acquittal in a case involving multiple counts of sexual abuse (sexual assault and sex with a child and sex with the same child) in Crawford County Wisconsin. The DA in that case delayed the trial by filing a motion at the last moment and trying to make it impossible for the defense to prepare a response. The DA also promised mounds of medical evidence to prove sexual assault and over the course of a week-long trial presented that evidence. Emotions were high in the small town of Prairie du Chien when Attorney Chris Van Wagner asked the jury to set the emotional aspects of the case aside and look to the facts that were presented. The jury acquitted the Crawford man on all counts.
